They use signal. They added the wrong person to the chat. Oh well. There’s no real disaster here. No real operational details exposed. Just some politicking that surprises no one.

They have way, way more employees than they need.

Our information environments are socially engineered. Reddit for sure. Major news sites. Etc Or do we only do that in other countries?

Don’t agree. Sometimes you can observe the world around you, and it’s not pretty. Are they not allowed to observe the truth as they see it? What if they are right?

I think you’re right on a lot of details here, but here’s a chart of illegal encounters over the past few years. It has boomed under the current admin. The bipartisan bill would have allowed in two million people a year. It threw a few scra

Trump says things people directionally agree with, and they forgive the details. When your border is wide open allowing millions of people in each year, you don’t care as much about the political circus. When your grocery bills 3x, you don’

Abraham accords. Isis. Tax cuts. Booming economy of 2018-2020. Remain in Mexico. Far lower illegal immigration. People remember the actions too. “From my understanding, his past performance was terrible too” Depends on what you focus on. If

This is a great example, and you’re downvoted because liberals don’t like to hear the criticisms of their tribe. They ask why people would vote for Trump, you explain your anecdote, and they downvote you. Classic blue tribe behavior.

Harris wasn’t just unlikeable. She came across as downright incompetent, a mediocrity elevated to the highest positions by the exact sort of identify focused criteria voters don’t want.

Millions of desperate people from very different cultures came into the country overwhelming welfare services and small communities, getting paid under the table by greedy businesses undercutting Americans and subverting labor laws. The cur

I regret that comment. I was upset and shouldn’t have posted it. But what I would say is: countries have distinct cultures, and there’s nothing wrong with wanting to preserve them, which implies controlling the rate of immigration from diff

Many of us don’t want to uproot everything - at substantial effort and cost - for unclear or negligible upside. USA is only at 13% of global emissions. And radically overhauling everything, as opposed to incentivizing greener tech over time

If it warms 2-3C as the IPCC predicts, humanity will still be thriving in the 2100s. Capitalism will still be kicking along just fine, and we ll probably be richer than ever.

But survive and thrive we do. And if you go to many places in North America (or around the world) you can still see large populations of wild animals, many recovering substantially with improved protection policies.

Why do you think it will warm 5C? Most of the models - which are not especially accurate or battle tested - don’t put us there. If we bumped to 1000ppm carbon, would the earth warm 5C? That’s a technical question. We don’t know exactly how

I think the return on investment on most proposed “changes” is negative. I don’t see any evidence that most of the biological world is hurdling towards destruction from climate. If we turned off the fossil fuel tap today, I think life on ea

To counter, I think we’ll most likely be fine. It might be two degrees warmer this century. Life will go on just fine. Possibly better in some ways and places. No problem, relatively speaking, compared to the hazards our ancestors face. If
